I think the problem is wide angle focusing error, many people may have
overlooked it, the DOF at F2 is very small. I found the 35/2 at F2
provide very sharp photos and also for the 50/1.4 wide open (later
version, the 3xx,xxx at close distance-wide open is very poor) but
"sharp" is only limited to the area that are in focus. I found my
photos were much better when I have changed to matte area focusing but
it need some practice to do with wide angle lenses.

One is with the OM4T 40/2. I forgot what shutter speed, but it is low.
1/30-1/60 at best. The other is C3000. I think it's easy to tell which one
is which :-) Too bad we didn't notice her hands were in opposite order!
